Hi,<br/>
<br/>
I'm facing an issue with tmpfs mounts on PowerPC (mpc83xx specifically).<br/>
<br/>
After "mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /tmp -o size=16m" I can fill the machine's mem (512MiB) until oom becomes active.<br/>
<br/>
I can't see this on any other machine (x86/ARM) I have access to.<br/>
There's always a "no space left on device" message as soon as size specified is reached ...<br/>
<br/>
kernel versions available are v2.6.26.27 and v2.6.34.7 showing the same behaviour.<br/>
<br/>
I'd expect the kernel to limit available tmpfs size to 50% of physical memory anyway.<br/>
<br/>
Any ideas what might be wrong ?<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
Regards,<br/>
André
